I am S feet 8 inches tall; dark hair

A Reader A skirt having but a
yard width Will be far too narrow.
I think it would pay you to purchase
sufficient material for" a drop skirt
of satin, matching your material, and
have the vest and cuffs of satin wun
a strip- of unbleached crash as an
edge trim. A sash or belt of satin.
The panels need net be lined, but
would be attractive with the design
done in black, blue and tan. A con
ventional block pattern works up
well and Is always a good type for
such a dress as yours. .

can eliminate the hole; if not, mend
with thread raveled from your ma

DEAR MADAMS! RICHBT: I should like
to ask for some of the assistance you are
so generouly furnishing to our sisters lp
aistress.
My problem la this:
X.have a dress of eanton ores, the waist
of which hangs straight down to the hips,
over the skirt which is full and gathered
onto the waistline. There Is a long full
belt to put over the blouse, but I am unable
to determine how to fasten the blouse
down, as I cannot sew it to the skirt.
I tried to sew the belt to the bottom of
the blouse but this was not successful and
X was wondering whether It would be suc
cessful tq .place weights around it, dope
together, but I do not think that this
would be enough to hold the blouse down
all the time, and the belt In place?
Could you help me? I would appreciate
If very much and express my appreciation
ID advance, lours sincerely, li. s. li,
Q. S. (.: Your problem is one
which confronts many wearers of the
ong blouse. The casing with the
iestio run should hvid your blouae in
place and tne beit can then be tasked f
in place. If your sk.rt is not too full
he snappers can be placed on blouse
casing and skirt and held in line. The
most successful scheme is in the first
construction- Mount the skirt and
he blouse at the desired line, to the
lawn lining, and then there can be
no "pull ups."

In the Butterick Quarterly, on page

THIS WEEK'S BEAUTY HELP
It is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely and
propefly cleansed each time by the
use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we can recommend to
our readers is one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolving a teaspoonful of can
throx, which can be obtained from
any druggist's, in a cup of hot. water.
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so it is easyto apply
It to all the hair Instead of just to
the top of the bead. This, when
rubbed into the ecalp and onto every
strand of hair, chemically dissolves
all impurities. It is very soothing
and cooling in its action, as well as
beneficial to both scalp and hair,
After rinsing out the lather so
created, you will find the scalp Is
fresh, clean and free from dandruff,
while the hair dries quickly and
evenly, developing a bright luster and
a soft fluffiness that makes it seem
